Couldn’t an enterprising Governor of a state just set up a procedure whereby any citizen of the state with no criminal record or mental health issues to be sworn in as a member of the state militia and order them to own an assault weapon as a condition of membership in good standing? Kind of a Switzerland approach.

That would seem to fall directly under the plain language of the 2nd Amendment.

I think the 2nd Amendment is broad enough as it is but the gun grabbers are going to try everything they can.

So lets combine the 2nd and 10th Amendment and make it a states right issue.

What could would it do? They don’t care about the 2nd or the 10th by themselves, why would they care about them combined?
